Created attachment 324394 [details] screenshot of geary window on launch from task panel Ubuntu Unity (15.10) Just opened the client to look at one of the emails I have received, from the Ubuntu Unity 15.10 task panel(?)) and apart from window decoration there is a blank interface. This also happened when I launched Geary from the launcher. A system restart did not correct the error. Thanks Andrew Grant
have the same problem in ubuntu 16.04 upgraded from 15.10. the problem is resolved if i kill the geary process in task manager and restart geary from the panel applet.
Hi there, thanks for reporting this issue. Andrew/dysonsphere, if you can reproduce this, please attach the output from running with debug output enabled, e.g. after launching it from the command line using "geary -d", when the issue is occurring. You may want to redact your email addresses from the debug output before attaching to this bug.

I did try to install and run geary from a clean install of ubuntu 15.10 and 16.04 but couldn't get geary to actually run at all. Not sure why. Again, apologies. Andrew Grant

Created attachment 327468 [details] Ensure main window contents are shown when presented from application Updated patch that catches a few more cases.
Hey Adam, please commit the patch when you have a moment. This and Geary's window management general could get cleaned up a bit, but this will do for now given a release is imminent.
Pushed to master. I'll let you close this if appropriate.
All good. Tidy up logged in Bug 766199. Thanks!
